    The equation will be written as $236=$16x+$124, where $236 is what she wants to save, $124 is what she already saved, and x is the number of weeks where she adds $16.

    So,

    $236=$16x+$124

    $236-$124=$16x

    $112=$16x

    $112/$16=x

    x=7

    She needs exactly 7 weeks to be able to have enough money to get her bike.
